Happy Friday!

Week 9, see ya later! Happy end to the first quarter everyone - three to go! I can smell the summer air already...

Precalc
Today we explored complex zeros of functions, and how to reduce polynomials over the reals and complex numbers.

***The Mathematical Lens Project can be turned in on the following dates: 10/30 is the early bird special (I'll give you 5 bonus points right off the bat) 11/3 is the final day to turn in the project. After that, there is a 10% reduction each day.***
